  • Friendly Cornwall campsite in a flat 10-acre field with sea views
  • A 10-minute walk to St Agnes, Trevaunance Cove and Trevellas Cove
  • Direct access to local footpaths and acres of space for games
Tin mines, cool coves and steam railways… Sunny Corner is a top pick for laidback outdoor breaks on Cornwall's north coast, with plenty of things to do in easy reach. This small and well-maintained campsite is in a 10-acre field on the edge of the village of St Agnes with stunning sea views, spacious pitches and easy access to all the village's amenities (about 10 minutes' walk away). Families certainly aren’t forgotten here, as the site is well equipped for all ages. There’s a spacious open field where the kids can blow off steam and make new friends in a safe and welcoming environment. And in terms of practicalities, Sunny Corner has modern toilets and showers for guests, all of which are well-maintained and a short walk away from the pitches. Sunny Corner is in the area of St Agnes known as Wheal Kitty, so you’ll only be a short five-minute walk from the historic buildings of the Blue Hills Tin Mine, where there’s a small exhibition about Cornwall's industrial past. Trevaunance Cove, a spectacular lifeguarded beach, and the more secluded Trevellas Cove are around a 10-minute walk away, while other coastal havens like Perranporth can be reached in as little as a 10-minute drive. Food on the brain too? Don’t worry, as you’ll be well set with a number of family-friendly cafés, pubs, restaurants and a couple of small supermarkets in the village that are easy to reach on foot within roughly 10-15 minutes.

Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite

Liked Beautiful views, great location, scenic walk down to the beach

Disliked Needs more facilities. Over 100 pitches with just 3 showers. No chance of a shower in the morning or evening unless you want to be part of a 10 person queue sitting on the grass. Have to have a shower in the middle of the day or late at night

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Sorry you had to queue, we have 60 pitches in total and we do have the right amount of showers and toilets for the amount of pitches its just some people are selfish and take too long.

We do aim to build more showers and toilets over the winter which will hopefully ease this problem. It is just at the weekends when it is really busy.

Would thoroughly recommend.

Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite

Liked Flat pitches! We’ve stayed at so many sites with our tent & literally rolled down hill. No worries here. The showers are proper too.

Disliked Not a dislike really, but the quiet area could be larger.

Local attractions

Get your hands on Cornish tin products to take home with you and see how the family goes about the ancient tin mining process at Blue Hills Tin Mine (five minutes' walk). After a lesson on the tin mining industry, there’s rockpooling at Trevaunance Cove (10 minutes' walk) or surfing at Perranporth (10 minutes' drive) to keep up the pace. Indeed, while there are so many places within around 10 minutes’ drive of the site, it doesn’t hurt to go a little further out, especially when there are coastal hotspots like Newquay (25 minutes) or Falmouth (35 minutes) to hand. These bigger places have plenty of entertainment in the form of watersports, amusement parks or shopping… and for steam train trips, there's Lappa Valley (30 minutes). Cornwall’s well-known for its coast, of course, but there are also some gorgeous gardens that make for a great afternoon out in this southern part of England. There are the rainforest biomes of the huge Eden Project (50 minutes), which has a daring zipwire and giant swing too – or Trebah Garden (45 minutes) for a taste of the sub-tropical beside the coast.
